    Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5896-1

    Ubuntu Security Notice 5896-1 - It was discovered that Rack was not
    properly parsing data when processing multipart POST requests. If a user
    or automated system were tricked into sending a specially crafted
    multipart POST request to an application using Rack, a remote attacker
    could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. It was
    discovered that Rack was not properly escaping untrusted data when
    performing logging operations, which could cause shell escaped sequences
    to be written to a terminal. If a user or automated system were tricked
    into sending a specially crafted request to an application using Rack, a
    remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code in
    the machine running the application.
